Holly Homer and Kids Activities Blog

Holly Homer - Kids Activities BlogLet me tell you a little about myself and the inspiration (and amazing team) behind Kids Activities.

I am Holly Homer.

I am the mom of three boys…very active boys!  In fact, it was apparent early-on that keeping them busy would be a strong strategy for my motherhood sanity.  The boys are now 13, 15 & 17 and are partially-homeschooled.

Partially-homeschooled?

Yep!  They attend a classical education school 2 1/2 days a week and are home-schooled 2 days a week.  Each of them started in this system in Kindergarten, so they don’t even understand 5 day a week school!

Our house is pretty chaotic.  You may have seen our dog named Panda on Instagram (or appearing frequently in articles here on Kids Activities Blog).  She is a French Bulldog that has taken over the house.

Tips for kids wearing glasses

My husband is a “retired” physician.  He now works full-time on our online & offline projects.  His specialty is video and does all the production of our online shows.

As my boys have grown, so has the Kids Activities team.  In fact, we have the best team around for having fun with kids.  Meet them here.

Holly Homer’s Kids Activities Books

One of the most unexpected opportunities coming from Kids Activities Blog is 3 published books by Page Street Publishing.  Each one is an extension of the fun we have here on the site.  One thing we learned after the first book is that KIDS READ THESE BOOKS.

While this blog is written to moms, dads, teachers, care-givers, babysitters, the books are super easy for a kid to pick up and choose their own adventure!

101 Kids Activities that are the Ooey, Gooey-est Ever!

101 Kids Activities That Are the Ooey, Gooey-est Ever!

This is the latest book just released on December 4, 2018!  It is overflowing with ooey-gooey, homemade ideas for making playdough, slime and other ishy, squishy play recipes.

The book is by Jamie Harrington, Brittanie Pyper & Holly Homer.  All people who have worked extensively on Kids Activities Blog at some point.

Grab this book at your local bookstore, Barnes & Noble or right now on Amazon(affiliate).

The 101 Coolest Simple Science Experiments

101 Coolest Simple Science Experiments

I might be a little partial to this one since it has a glow-in-the-dark cover…I know!  So cool!

101 Coolest Simple Science Experiments is for kids 5-12 (younger if adults are leading the fun) and jammed with science silliness.

With this book, you can do things both indoors and outdoors.  The handy mess meter, preparation times and notes on the level of supervision will keep the entire family happy and safe.  Experimenting is really fun, and everyone will have a blast being a scientist!

Shhh…it is so entertaining that you might not notice you are also learning important things about the world around you!

This book by Rachel Miller, Holly Homer & Jamie Harrington will turn your kitchen into a colorful laboratory.

Grab this book at your local bookstore, Barnes & Noble or right now on Amazon(affiliate).

101 Coolest Simple Science Experiments was chosen by Kohl’s as a Kohl’s Care Book in 2017 to be available at all Kohl’s locations to benefit children’s charities.

101 Kids Activities That Are The Bestest, Funnest Ever!

This is the book that started it all.  Thank you Page Street Publishing!

101 Kids Activities That Are the Bestest, Funnest Ever! is for kids of all ages, plus parents, babysitters, grandparents and anyone that wants to have fun.

Each of the 101 activities have modifications for younger kids and modifications for older kids – so the entire family can play together!

We love that.

101 Kids Activities That Are the Bestest, Funnest Ever! was written by Holly Homer & Rachel Miller.  Rachel was the founder of Quirky Momma which you now know as Kids Activities Blog.

This book was chosen by Kohl’s as a Kohl’s Care book 2016.  It was sold at all Kohl’s registers across the country with 100% of the proceeds going to children’s charities.  What an amazing thing!

Work with Holly Homer & Kids Activities

I accidentally started a blog 11 years ago as a way to get some adult conversation  while raising 3 boys under the age of 6. That hobby turned into Kids Activities Blog and the Quirky Momma FB page which reaches millions of moms each month who are in the trenches of motherhood.

If you are looking to reach moms, I would love to work with you.

The easiest way to reach me is by email: [email protected]
